Move new log entry to top of screen [IN DISCUSSION]

Hi there.

When I try to enter a new QSO, the virtual keyboard of my Android hides the fields, so I have to guess or double check what I just typed. Funny enough, the same is true in this very moment that I’m trying to post this message. Really annoying.

Can we move the “new QSO” bar to the top of the log view please? Or get the keyboard out of the view somehow?

Sorry no screenshots, keyboard will hide as soon as I try to take one.

@DL9PD Hey Daniel,

Sorry your having some trouble! I can see how that could be annoying lol I’ll reach out to the team and have them take a look and try and push a hot fix for this. I’ll admit a screenshot would def help but thats ok. I’ll try and replicate it without it.

I’ll reach back out asap after we’ve had a quick discussion about this.

Thanks & 73

Brad,

thank you for looking into this.

XYL and kids are out, so finally I found some time to prepare some screenshots to give you an idea.

As I just found out the hard way, new users can upload one media item per post, so here we go.

Here’s the app in fullscreen, as we all know it:

All looking good as expected.

Now let’s try to use the keyboard to type a callsign:

D’oh! Where’s the text box? I don’t have a clue what I’m typing, so it’s a matter of hit-or-miss.

Note that the app behaves differently when used in split mode:

In Android, when you hold the square button in the lower right corner for a second, you can enable split mode, which allows you to use two apps at the same time.

In this case, the input area of the app moves up so I can actually see what I’m typing:

So I guess it’s an easy fix.

Again, thank you, and as always,

(Oh, by the way, this “you’re replying too quickly, wait for a few seconds” might sound like a nice measure against spam, but if you’re trying to copy+paste some pre-formatted text into multiple messages, it simply … :wink: I guess I just have to wait for the system to accept me as a non-spammer. Hope my posts aren’t considered spam, hi hi )
